Misc photo of a make-up for evening.



Wish I could remember what lip product combo this was!

Red eyebrow alert...





Terrible lighting in my bathroom late at night; but this look is gold glowing skin, orange cheeks, strong red brows and glittery lips using a few amazing products from British born makeup brand Illamasqua.

1. Illamasqua 'Angled Brow Brush'
2. Illamasqua Powder Blusher in 'Expose'
3. Illamasqua 'Sealing Gel'
4. Illamasqua Pure Pigment in 'Berber'

I used a matte red eye shadow on the fantastically firm 'Angled Brow Brush' for a defined statement brow, applied a swirl of the bright true orange 'Expose' blush on the top of my cheekbones, then mixed the 'Sealing Gel' with the Pure Pigment in 'Berber' (which is a highly pigmented auburn-red colour shot through with green and gold shimmers) and patted it into my lips for it to stick in place!

Butterfly Girl




I love butterflies, which for a girl is nothing new!
(Spy the wooden butterfly & photo of beautiful Kirsten Dunst as Marie Antoinette in the background)
So here is a play around with the cool toned shades in my palettes with various pigments and glitters on top.
My favourite part of the look is actually the last thing I added which is the little blue freckles on the cheeks made with Illamasqua Medium Pencil in 'Debonair'!
